A new escape room is to be built in a historic Nottingham venue as part of a heritage project. The National Justice Museum, in High Pavement, has received £249,996 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, with the funds also being used to create new jobs and deliver more workshops across the country.
Museum bosses say the funds will support the extension the 'NJM on Tour' programme, which delivers courtroom workshops. The new escape room, meanwhile, will be based in the Nottingham gaol.
The attraction will be suitable for all ages and will be linked to the 'historic and legal themes of the Museum'. It is set to open towards the end of the year.
